Teacher Accused of Harassing 13 Students in New Valley, Labubu Craze Takes Over Egypt, and Nile Rides Hit New Heights🤔
Good morning Cai Town! 🌇 It’s Wednesday — we’re halfway there, people! Take that coffee shot and keep pushing. ☕ But as always, Cairo’s not slowing down, and the tea today is extra spicy. Here’s what’s got everyone buzzing:
💃 Nelly Karim and Hatim Ammor lit up Marrakech last night! The Caftan 2025 afterparty turned into THE party of the year thanks to Nelly and Hatim serving moves on the dancefloor. Who needs a runway when the vibes are this fierce? Egyptian glam meets Moroccan beats, and the internet can’t get enough.
🧸 Labubu craze hits Egypt The internet’s latest obsession — Labubu — has officially landed in Egypt! This “kidult” collectible is turning grown-ups into kids again… but with luxury price tags. From TikTok to collectors' shelves, Labubu is the new status symbol nobody saw coming. Are you team Labubu yet? 🤔
🚤 Nile rides, but make it Egyptian style Normal people go for a night ride… Egyptians? They go for a Nile ride. One woman was spotted casually “driving” her water car down the Nile at night, and honestly? A whole vibe. Because why cruise the streets when you can float through the heart of Cairo instead?
